Rihanna is downright tired of fans pestering her about her next album, so now she's just taken to teasing them on social media.

Look, if y'all don't leave Rihanna alone about her next record, we may never receive her new album. Anytime Rihanna shares anything on social media, tens of thousands of fans respond. The Savage x Fenty boss has been busy building her cosmetics and apparel empire—a feat that has derailed plans for new music. Fans know that she'll make good on dropping another project, but it's been four years since Anti and her admirers are getting a tad impatient.

Once again, fans have been hounding Rihanna about her record, so she took a bit of time to engage with her followers on Instagram. One person wrote, "WHERES THE ALBUM," to which Ri replied, "I lost it," along with a shrug emoji. Then, another person wrote, "DON'T DROP DAT ALBUM," so Rihanna decided to have a little fun. "Navy this who to blame ☝🏾 right here look."

Recently, the singer shared a bit of information about her highly-anticipated project with British Vogue. "I can’t say when I’m going to drop,” she said. “But I am very aggressively working on music." Rihanna added, "I don’t want my albums to feel like themes.. there are no rules. There’s no format. There’s just good music, and if I feel it, I’m putting it out. I feel like I have no boundaries. I’ve done everything – I’ve done all the hits, I’ve tried every genre – now I’m just, I’m wide open. I can make anything that I want.”
